Bob and Lee Yes we will miss you.

Nice meal last night at Grills, warm adn humid here fro sure.

Good 4 miler this morn, leaked a bunch, noticed Orion on the eastern horizon so fall is not that far off.

Having breakfast here at the HI Express, will head to teh port 9:00 ish LOL I know late for me but no rush on this one.

Have a great day kids, more from the port.

Lynn G · 08-09-2009, 05:53 AM

Good Morning Cruisers!

It is a humid morning here in Cocoa Beach! Scott went out for early morning run - we are now enjoying breakfast at the Holiday Inn Express!

Leslie - it depends on what time you show up to board the ship whether Scott's hands will be in the air or in the shrimp bowl

We will be keeping the ship warm for all of you! Have a great couple of days!

Hanover · 08-09-2009, 07:44 AM

We have 2 more days and a wake up before our flight to MCO. We still have to pack. We actually still need to do laundry and then pack!

Things have been crazy for us with DH's police unit having to work 8PM-4AM the last 2 weeks and both boys finishing baseball/starting football. Brennan (DS8) finished his last tournament this past week with 3 games back to back yesterday alone---he literally played from 10AM to 8PM with a 4 1/2 hour game starting at 1PM and going 5 extra innings (they won by 1). They made it to the championship and played under the lights but lost. Although I love their travel teams, I'm just happy to be done and have one less thing to do before our trip!

We just can't wait for vacation!

Scott H · 08-09-2009, 09:40 AM

We are at the port all checked in ready to head our, Hey Where are you guys

Scott H · 08-09-2009, 09:44 AM

LINDA, Peter is the cruise director....

Also we will have to get off between the B2B.... actually me the crew person that will escort us off and then back on..

mketting · 08-09-2009, 12:53 PM

Super late joiner.

I will be cruiseing with 4 fellow Moms. We are coming from NY, PA and FL. and will all meet on Wed. night and stay in Cocoa Beach. This will be my 4th Disney cruise. My Sister and I crusied with our families in Feb and are doing the $99 Bounceback with friends. We're on decks 2 and 6.

Is there anything special planned on the Wonder for this cruise since it is the 10th Anniversary.

Welcome aboard! If you find me in the cruise terminal and/or at the dismeet at 2:00pm overlooking the Goofy pool I can give you some blank name badges with lanyards. Sorry, to late for names on the name badges.

The only thing they did for the Magic's 10th Anniversary was mention it at the show and they had a cake at dinner - that's it.

Add a nice time at Hollywood Studios today - going to Magic Kingdom tonight - dinner at Tonys.

Had a nice evening with Georgie, Joe and their friend David and nephew Brandon. Swimming at the pool followed by Dole Whip and fireworks at the Poly! Beautiful evening!
Time is closing fast! At least the laundry is done

and some things set aside to pack..... Have to wait for Joe to find the suitcase, I don't brave the garage alone....

Decided not to bring the steerage bar this time....

gonna have to rely on Drinks of the Day and Konk Koolers!

Well....Maybe just some fire water to spice up the Bubba.

poohj80 · 08-09-2009, 10:57 PM

I know it's a bit late, but just got around to reading the meet forum.

DH and I will be cruising this week on the 3 day using the $99 bounceback offer. This is our second DCL cruise but first without DD so we're hoping we don't feel guilty the enture cruise. We will be celebrating our 13th anniversary and are really looking forward to seeing the front half of the ship :-)

To Lynn G - Nice to see someone from WY on the cruise! DH and I were married at the foot fo Elk Mountain, WY.

Welcome aboard! Like I said to mketting, find me in the terminal or at the 2:00pm dismeet on deck 10 overlooking the Goofy Pool for a lanyard and name badge (but without the name).

Don't feel guilty - we've been on 10 or 11 DCL cruises and less then half have been with DD. Parents deserve a break once in awhile.

kpros · 08-10-2009, 06:07 AM

Good Morning Everyone! Another day closer to the cruise!

Had a nice day at the parks yesterday. Hollywood Studios in the morning and Magic Kingdom in the evening. Actually stayed for fireworks. Haven't done that for a long time.

Don't know what the plan is for today. Boma for dinner - that's all I know.

Have a great day!

Thanks Ken! Unfortunately (or fortunately for us), we have a couples massage scheduled during this time Thursday to kick off our anniversary cruise so won't be able to meet everyone.

I'm curious what the crowds are like at the parks this time of year. We decided against adding a day or two at the parks thinking it would still be crowded.

I'm glad you have your food plans all scheduled. Wouldn't want you to starve before the cruise!

I want a review of your Whispering Cove or is it Canyon from the other night.......

Animal Kingdom was very crowded today. Magic Kingdom was packed yesterday.

Whispering Canyon was great. Noisy, but good food and a fun server.
